THE S ALEMITE Friday, September 26, 1958 Brief Glance Of Someone Or Something That Was Alas and welaway! Summer is over, yel I have observed in eyes of many Salemites the glimmer of a something or someone that was. Such a Salemite is Ruth Bennett. Ruth worked at the Tahoe Tavern, Tahoe City, California, as a wait- tress. Of course we can only con sider it a coincitlence that Carl Blom, a California gentleman whom she met in Oslo. Norway, last sum mer, resides in San Francisco and that she was able to see him, and in record time acquire his frater nity iiin. Nice summer, profitably spent, I’d say. Somewhat less romantic yet equally e.'tciting was Gwynn Dick erson’s summer. Gwynn worked at a camp for wayward girls run by the Y. W. C. A. of Norfolk, Va. As a waterfront director and advisor for the camp’s bi-weekly newspaper. In charge of 25 15, 16, and 17 year old girls, Gwynn was continually in search of switch blades hidden in bras. She also acquired the art of sniffing sham poo bottles to determine whether they contained Halo or Gin ! Once she was kicked out of her bunk by a girl to whom she was offering a candy bar. Is that whait is meant by biting the hand that feeds you? After camp closed, Gwynn and two other counselors decided to tour the country. They left Nor folk in a ’48 Chewy—loaded with provisions: One loaf of bread, one jar of mayonnaise and one jar of olives. Tlie trio ended up in Que bec, Canada most probably in need of food—at least t got that idea when G'vynn said, “We saw the country behind an olive!” There were Salemites who.did not yield to the wander lust, how ever. Beverly Wollney, Salem’s contribution to the fashion world, modeled for Hartford in N'nv York City ... a glamorous and lucrative way to spend the summer. Of course there were some for tunate souls . . . Did I say SOME? . . . who spent the summer in Europe. I asked several of these girls to comment on their trips. The comments: Viva I . . . Bella! . . . Wunderbar! . . . and long live the queen! I don’t know these continental exclamations, but you can be sure I’m going over there and find out . . . after I make my first million teaching school! 1 have been asked to announce that we now have an Old Salem branch of the New York City Chamber of Commerce. The office is located on third floor Bitting Dormitory. Plan now for that summer of summers! —Sarah Ann Price Notice Guests of students are welcome for meals in the Corrin Refectory.

Orientation Week Deemed Success That somehow order might evolve from- chaos is the most fervent wish of all participants of Orien tation Week. Advisers, having planned parties, reviewed rules, donned most welcoming smiles and motherly miens, cross their fingers and hope for smooth sailing. The administration braces itself for the beginning of a new' year with mixed emotions of eagerness and dread. Freshmen come with a sense of independence, yet a desperate need Tjr guidance, friendliness, interest, and some semblance, somewdiere, of unity. On their first night of college life, members of the Class of ’62 helped to entertain themselves by participating in informal singing in Babcock basement. All agreed that it helped divert their thoughts from families and friends back home, thereby preventing home sickness. A Club Carnival, designed to help familiarize new students with campus organizations, was Mon day’s big event. It was welcomed not only because it was fun and informative, but also because it presented an opportunity to meet many upper-classmen. The Combo Party on Tuesday night was perhaps the greatest suc cess: dates, dancing, a real college party at last. Everybody felt wel come and gay. The Fashion Parade and Out-door Theater Party evoked feelings of appreciation for the amount of plan ning and preparation which they displayed. Interesting and dif ferent, they' were tw'O of the most enjoyable events of the week. The freshmen are reciprocating by extending gratitude to their ad visers and big sisters, many thanks to the administration for including such helpful information in their talks, and warmth toward all the tpper classmen for their friendly interest. They seem convinced that their orientation week was helpful and enjoyable.
